The hovercraft is a joke
I haven't seen a single person in my entire BF2042 playthrough using the Hovercraft. It's awful to drive making one mistake will make you drift or swerve around. You have no control over it. Terrible...

So why are no one using them now then?
If I need a vehicle and only the jeep and hovercraft are available, I'll take the jeep to pound with the .30 from long distance or the hovercraft if I want to get in close and lay waste with the grenade launcher. It's usually shortlived, but I can get several kills while doing it.
